Perfume Vial Limoges Box with a Painted Rose

Shaped like a perfume vial and decorated with a rose, this porcelain piece pairs two classic symbols of feminine grace. It was hand-painted in Limoges, France, as a shaped Limoges box.

Scent of a Rose

Rose has been a cornerstone of French perfumery since the early days of Grasse, the town in Provence famed for its flower fields. A rose on a perfume vial shape brings that fragrant history to mind in porcelain form.

Bottles and Blooms

• Perfume vial shaped porcelain painted by hand in Limoges, France
• Fits a perfume bottle, rose or vanity collection
• Pairs well with the blue and white perfume bottles box

Pills, Patches and Perfume

Small porcelain boxes first came into fashion in 18th century France, when elegant ladies used them for snuff, pills and the little beauty patches worn on the face. A vial shaped piece carries on that tradition of pretty things for the dressing table. Give it to a perfume enthusiast, a bride, or a friend who loves roses. It looks best on a mirrored vanity tray among real perfume bottles.
